Well here a link..from the moment the core 2 duo came out have we in the chess world already a 2048core chess engine!

Think there are more people who use software who needs more cores.There will be never enough cores.

In the chess world we are very happy to see these multi core cpu's..most have between 4 & 6 cores systems..and looking forward to see the Bulldozer in action!
